Custom i3status

Customized i3status command built with Barista. Includes a Barista module for strongSwan.

Install

go install enr0n.net/i3status/cmd/i3status-enr0n@latest

Configure

Set the status_command in your i3 config:

# Start i3bar to display a workspace bar (plus the system information i3status
# finds out, if available)
bar {
        status_command "exec ~/go/bin/i3status-enr0n"

        ...

}

It may be better to run vici over TCP, otherwise the /var/run/charon.vici socket permissions need to be changed. If using a non-default vici socket, set this with the --vici-socket flag:

# Start i3bar to display a workspace bar (plus the system information i3status
# finds out, if available)
bar {
        status_command "exec ~/go/bin/i3status-enr0n --vici-socket tcp://localhost:9999"

        ...

}

strongSwan Barista Module

This module grabs information from the charon daemon over vici, and can be used to display IKE SA name, child SA name, virtual IPs, etc.
